A boat crosses a river of width 244 m in which the current has a uniform speed of 1.99 m/s. The pilot maintains a bearing (i.e.,

the direction in which the boat points) perpendicular to the river and a throttle setting to give a constant speed of 1.68 m/s relative to the water. How far downstream from the initial position is the boat when it reaches the opposite shore

Answer:289.02\ m

Explanation:

Given

width of river d=244\ m

velocity of current v_1=1.99\ m/s

Velocity of boat w.r.t to current v_{21}=1.68\ m/s perpendicular to current

therefore Perpendicular component of velocity will help boat to cover the width of river in t_1 time which is given by

t_1=\frac{244}{v_{21}}

t_1=\frac{244}{1.68}=145.23\ s

In this time current will drift the boat a distance of

x=v_1\times t_1

x=1.99\times 145.23

x=289.02\ m

The charge per unit length on a long, straight filament is -92.0 μC/m. Find the electric field 10.0 cm above the filament.
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C towards the filament

Explanation:

Electric field due to a line charge is given by the expression

E = [tex]\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\times\epsilon_0\times r}[/tex]

where λ is linear charge density of line charge , r is distance of given point from line charge and ε₀ is a constant called permittivity and whose value is

8.85 x 10⁻¹².

Putting the given values in the equation given above

E = \frac{92\times10^{-6}}{2\times3.14\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times10^{-1}}

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C
